^ Always around checking for updates. That height would make this one of the tallest in the country. The numbers given in that graphic are in constant flux for the most part though (some have actually been increased). So who knows exactly how tall this one will be. But it's a good start. (And it's being designed by SHoP!)

Quote:

...by The Real Deal’s count, there are at least 20 New York City projects at least 900 feet tall that are either under construction or in the planning stages today. Of that batch, 14 are 1,000 feet or taller.

Note that the graphic doesn't include office towers, like the WTC, anything in the Hudson Yards, or even 1 Vanderbilt.

They've also posted the articles on their website about this tower ranking up there witg the ESB. I dont think that 1,454 ft is the exact height for this one, just a reference (I could be wrong). But it does make you wonder what Gary "I Can Build Taller Than You" Barnett thinks about all of this. His tower at Citypoint will be barely a block up the street.

“Office buildings are our factories – whether for tech, creative or traditional industries we must continue to grow our modern factories to create new jobs,” said United States Senator Chuck Schumer.

Back in June of 2014, YIMBY reported on new building applications filed by JDS Development for a tower coming to 340 Flatbush Avenue Ext., on the southeastern edge of Downtown Brooklyn. Now, we have the first rendering and actual details for the SHoP-designed tower, which will rise 1,000 feet tall, claiming the title of New York City’s tallest building outside of Manhattan, and giving Brooklyn its first legitimate supertall skyscraper.

Building applications called for a 775-foot tall structure spanning 555,734 square feet, and subsequent plans filed with the DOB were even shorter. But the actual design will majorly exceed expectations.

The residential component will span 466,000 square feet, and be divided amongst 550 units, with approximately 90 floors in total. There will also be 140,000 square feet of commercial development, likely including the repurposed and refurbished Dime Savings Bank.
